Thread: IS-2/ISU-152 vs Tiger Ace15 Nov 2013, 18:46 PM The ISU-152 commander with guards, mark target, and IL2 bombing runs would probably be your best bet. Button, mark target, bomb and pound away with the ISU. Even then it will probably be iffy lol. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Blitzkrieg tactics balance issue15 Oct 2013, 15:09 PM I honestly think that making Blitzkrieg only work in the "forwards" direction would also work, silly as it may sound. You can still use it offensively, but it is harder to use as a get out of jail free card. I have no idea if that is possible to code, however. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Very few cost effective counters to upgraded Grens15 Oct 2013, 14:59 PM I think part of the problem in the apparent disparity between conscripts and grenadiers is the Veterancy system. For both squads, Vet 1: 480 exp, Vet 2: 960 exp, Vet 3: 1920 exp However, conscript hp pool = 6x80 hp grenadier hp pool = 4x80 hp So killing a conscript squad is worth more exp to the grenadiers than conscripts killing a grenadier squad. So the grenadiers will vet up faster, becoming harder to kill. When you add a LMG to the grenadier squads which significantly increases their dmg output, the rate of exp gain further increases. Eventually you have Vet 3 LMG grenadier squads which cause conscripts to evaporate as soon as the grenadiers look at them. Even running up to try to molotov the stationary LMG grenadier results in more than half of the conscript squad dying. I really only ever see Vet 3 conscripts when I choose a PPSH doctrine. But I still find Vet 3 grenadiers more effective. My Ostheer strategy for team games is just grens + lmgs, paks, then panthers. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: T34/8511 Oct 2013, 20:07 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Oct 2013, 19:55 PMwooof and thats why it has 2.6 distance scatter? because its an AT tank? look at all the AI tanks. youll find they all have less than 3 distance scatter. ISU152 is the only exception but it has ridiculous AOE to compensate. in that last post he was comparing the t34/76 and t34/85. in the others he has been comparing it to the p4. currently, the t34/85 is not meant to be superior to the p4 in AT because it is better in AI. thats why ive been talking about roles. he tried this exact same comparison with the is2 vs tiger and its flawed for the exact same reason. The increased damage and penetration of its main gun (and actual history) indicate the T34-85 is intended to serve as an improved anti-tank vehicle. I don't think anyone would be buying a pair of T34-85's for anti-infantry, when the T34-76 already has that role covered. Heck, nerf its scatter range to weaken its anti-infantry capability if that will allow its anti-tank capability to be improved. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: T34/8511 Oct 2013, 19:34 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Oct 2013, 19:30 PMwooof here, to prove my point, ill even make the su85 brummbar comparison for you: su85 finishing off a brummbar: (960/160)4.25/(85%)=30sec brummbar finishing off a su85: (640/160)8.5/(44.12%)=77.06sec (WTF?) Comparing the tank-killing capability of a anti-infantry tank to an anti-tank assault gun is not the same as comparing the tank-killing ability of a T34-76 to a T34-85......at all.... The entire point of the T34-85 is to be a more effective anti-tank version of the T34-76. Hence UGBEAR's comparison is completely valid and worth noting. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: An essay on Soviets and a radical proposal11 Oct 2013, 19:18 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Oct 2013, 18:55 PMLichtbringer One thing I don't understand: We talk here about modes with more players than 1v1. Shouldn't it be a huge advantage that 2 Players can go for T1 and 2 Players for T2 at the start of the game? Allowing combined arms? I don't really see how that could be considered an advantage over anything that an Ostheer team could also choose to do. Ostheer doesn't need to coordinate between team members to have access to their combined arms. They have their all options readily available as they tech up (unless they choose to skip tiers for fast T2 or whatever). A simple solution would be to reduce the cost of both starting Soviet structures, such that both could be made if desired, and increase the cost of the T3/T4 structures to compensate, thereby preventing faster T-70s/T-34s/whatever. Maybe reduce the ridiculously long build times, too, but that would create more balance issues. Soviet engineers need to work harder. Pioneers can dig their trench structures in no time lol In: COH2 Balance
Thread: T34/8511 Oct 2013, 19:05 PM The T34-85 is really suffering from being the only non-tweaked tank since the major balance patches began. They are now far too expensive for their degree of ineffectiveness. Costing 60 more fuel to call-in than a Tiger or IS-2 is not acceptable. As a doctrine-specific call-in unit, they should be noticeably better than the regular T34-76's in all areas, I think. T34-85's are already tougher due to their larger HP pool, but the reload time on their guns is too long and this neuters their dmg output. Reduce their reload time (6.5s ?) and maybe tweak the cost to 800mp/220fu, making it 280mp/85fu for T34-76 compared to 400mp/110fu for a T34-85. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Camoed AT not firing?11 Oct 2013, 18:43 PM Some kind of "Hold Ground" order would help, where you have the units shoot from their current position, but do not move. This issue is also frustrating when you click an HMG to attack an infantry squad and it begins packing up instead of firing, allowing the infantry squad to rush in and kill you. Especially with the long set-up time of the MG42. In: COH2 Bugs
